"You can't be serious!"

I already conceded that the vid could well be contrived, but admitted that I wasn't positive one way or the other.

The sunroof was only open slightly wider than the size of the cat's head. (Cats have been known to insert their heads into tight spaces if they're curious about what might be inside. They are inquisitive animals.) The roof would only have to close a centimeter or two to create an opening slightly smaller than the cat's skull. Skulls being solid bone and not flexible/compressible tissue, once that happens, there's no escaping.

And the way that cat reacted, then slid off the car (doing a flip over the side view mirror), that looked like a dead cat. (Of course, it could have been road kill, or come from some other source.)

The strongest piece of evidence against the vid being real is the fact that vertebrae, skin, fur, trachea and the other miscellaneous soft tissue making up the neck of an animal is not exactly easy to transect.

I really do HOPE the video was in fact the creation of someone with a lot of time on their hands. I really don't have anything against people who don't like cats (to each his own), as long as they don't intentionally swerve their cars to run them over, or toss unwanted kittens from a moving vehicle, or commit any of the other sadistic atrocities I have personally witnessed in my time.
